Whenever a job calls for some serious ATV action, the Kawasaki Mule 4010 4x4 is here to save the day. The Mule 4010 4x4 is loaded with great features to help you get to the job site and get things done. It’s not meant to win any design awards, but in terms of all-around versatility, the Mule 4010 4x4 holds a back seat to no one.
Besides its convenient selectable four-wheel drive system, the Mule 4010 4x4 also boasts of a full-sized chassis, reliable digital fuel injection, electric power steering (EPS) system, fully automatic transmission, locking rear differential, and a tilting cargo bed. Pretty cool, right?
Leading things of is a liquid-cooled 617cc V-twin engine that is managed by a digital Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and is fed by a fuel injection system, compensating for variations in atmospheric pressure, engine, and air temperature. This allows the Mule 4010 to have consistent starts and ultra-precise fuel metering, two traits that only reduces fuel consumption, but also limits unwarranted emissions. The ECU also regulates top engine speed, which means the Mule doesn?t need a mechanical governor.
The Mule’s power is transmitted through a dependable, low-maintenance shaft drive system to a dual-mode rear differential that can be locked to maximize traction or unlocked to improve handling and minimize ground disturbance when negotiating tight turns.
As far as handling is concerned, the Mule 4010 4x4 has a roomy cab that’s surrounded by a large-diameter steel tube frame structure. With its rugged and modern bodywork, coupled with a MacPherson strut long-travel front suspension that provides a comfortable ride and excellent load-carrying capability, the Mule 4010 4x4 is a natural choice compared to other ATVS in the market.
